When I went here I had a corneal erosion, and it was so painful and I couldn’t see. After a bad experience twice with a previous eye doctor they got me in fast! The doc seen me and they really checked my eye to make sure, within a few days I was all healed up and doc made sure to educate me on what to do next, and the ladies at the front desk were extremely nice and sweet! Everyone here is a good person, and I don’t feel terrible spending money here because this clinic is the best one here. 10/10 I would come here!!!

I don't put a lot of stock into reviews, but when I find exceptional consideration, consumer service, and professionalism in a single location, I feel obligated to share. Having spent the past 2 years with a provider who was, shall I say, "less than competent" I took some advice and called Henderson Eye Center. Susan answered the call and it was all I needed to ease my anxiety this would not be another fiasco. She is a great conversationalist and a very knowledgeable woman. You can tell she is compassionate and caring from the start to the end of the conversation. Susan makes an extraordinary first impression. Mary, my technician then stepped in. Her skills and caring were evident from the first minute. She explained all of the testing thoroughly, made sure you were comfortable, and never once failed to answer your questions. She has a lovely sense of humor and is a very good listener. Then on to Dr. Johnson...I cannot say enough about this man's professionalism. More to the point, his knowledge and the extra care he takes with his patients is amazing. No question is left unanswered even when it takes time. I was pleasantly surprised to not feel any pressure to get the appointment done quickly. He listens intensely; addresses your concerns; does not talk down to a patient; and has a great sense of humor. The optical department also went above and beyond in helping with eyeglasses. You leave knowing you have received the best possible care. What a truly wonderful feeling! Medical drama should be left to television, so it is important that medical professionals are responsive to the patient needs. I can tell you that the staff at Henderson Eye Center exceeds all of the qualities you need, want, and deserve from medical care. My advice is to call them!
The optometrist my daughter sees, Dr. Johnson, is fantastic. She has been to him for weird eye things and injuries and he always gives honest feedback and options in a way both of us can understand. The optical center, however, is terrible. I've used them 3 times now and each time they over promise and under deliver. Most everyone I've had dealings with is not the most friendly or helpful. Thankfully, the optometrist gives you your written script after the exam. Even though it's a pain in the rear, I will be taking that to my preferred optical center.
Dr. Henderson took his time to study my particular issue and was thorough to explain what course of action might be helpful in the future. I never felt rushed. The staff were all pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful.
Dr Johnson is wonderful in every way. Some of his staff that answer the phone have not. It feels like they are almost playing a game asking every question twice then transferring to another to explain again. Then they seemed to play dr with me. At the end of it they were ambiguous wheather I should or can be seen. I get angry almost every time dealing with them. Im there to get something done not whatever that is.
